List of improvement ideas from a new player
Sacrusha:
Actually, there is a way to make sense of medics, in a way that might add to the gameplay experiance.
Specialized Scientists.
Instead of using workshops, small alien hangars, hospitals, research facilities, etc use different specialized research facilities.
"Hospitals" could be used for autopsies, bionics research, etc, and healing, cybernetic upgrades.
"Workshops" might be used for personal combat equipment research and production.
"Alien Hangars" would probably be used for ship research and production.
Of course the names do not fit at all.

Yeah, we could do that, if we wanted something even worse and more fiddly than the current system. There's no fun in making research more complicated, only more hassle for the player and for us.

i've just got around to reading this thread, my only question with regard to the removal of medics is do we have a capacity limit for hospitals or make them unlimited?

BTAxis:
Building more than one hospital will not increase the effect.
stevenjackson:
I was thinking more along the lines of say, a hospital at maximum could hold 20 injured soldiers, so, if you had 40 injured soldiers you would need two hospitals. So in this case the effect is the same regardless its more a matter of only needing one hospital per base, ever. Or possibly needing additional hospitals a deal with lots of injuries.
Or do we just have every injured person able to use the hospital as long as there is one in the base.
